Sounds like you sprained your ankle so use ice 20min ON and 20min OFF for the next few days but never when you're sleeping. Use the crutches and the ace wrap to keep the swelling down. Advil/Aleve as needed for the pain. Then have you parents make you an appointment to see your local podiatrist to get your ankle checked out and make sure it isn't broken. There you should get a walking boot and a compressive ankle wrap which will make getting around a lot easier. After about 2-3 weeks from the injury, you should go to physical therapy to get your ankle all better. Hope this helps!
